Trellix Helix with GenAI

We are in the energy market, specifically in energy generation. We got the Trellix EDR installed in most endpoints.

The tool helps us to traverse possible thread incidents thru our mult site network infrastructure. In case of any forensic case it will be helpful to hunt thru the history or evidence information the EDR collects.

Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR)  is valuable because we have a Wide Area Network with many sites, and the EDR is cross-site since it is configured and managed from the cloud. This is very useful because it does not matter what is happening at one endpoint of the company in one site and the relation of an incident with another computer or endpoint at another site. All the tree of data that we have, which may be a lot of information help us to argue whether it is going to be a threat or not, can be analyzed. Most of the threats are not really threats, but we can see what is happening in the relations, in the networking, and the data that comes back and forth through our company's network infrastructure.

Threat hunting is valuable because it pinpoints what is happening everywhere in our networking infrastructure. We have a company contract working through a NOC- network operating center 24 hours a day. They are sending us reports many times a day if any threat is arising or asking why this operation has come through or if it is valid or not, or whether we have approved it. We have a lot of that type of information, but we need to manage the contract in a much more efficient way because I do not have the time to read the many information that comes through the network operating center, the security operating center, or the tools itself and the notification reports that I have. While I am managing the policies and the standards, I need a lot of people to monitor, detect, and recover if something happens. The tools are not useful for that. We need to have people with enough expertise to manage all of this.

I believe this is a product in evolution. I do not think it is a final tool to conduct forensics or information forensics of the incidents or information incidents that could arise in our network infrastructure. Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR)  is interesting and is a very good entry point that has been evolving through the last years. In the next two months, I have a new contract, and we are pointing out to have an XDR  solution with NDR and EDR together.

I do not have enough time to do it because I am the manager. However, my coworkers do not understand it yet. I have a contract with a third-party company that is making reports around that, but also they do not have enough experience or enough utility of this.

It would be interesting if I have a notification system from EDR. For example, if I am the manager, it would be interesting to have a warning, alarm, or something around that which could call me to get into the system and the dashboard to see what is happening. For example, if it is a high-level threat. However, most of them are just advisory or warnings. I do not enter the tool frequently. I guess I access it once every three months.

I have been using Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) for about six years.

As mentioned, this is an evolutionable tool. In the past there has been many times when the tool clogged the endpoints and we had to uninstall it. Windows (c) 10 enterprise edition, for instance, has some problems.

I have not scalate the EDR solution yet. We have not had a critical alert to do it. It's supossed that the SOC company should do it just in the case.

Tech support may be tricky if the support comes from Asia experts. Eeryone here speaks spanish and I are not affordable most of time. The tech is interesting when a high support level is called. Once someone from Argentina helped me that has excellent skills. We need more like her.

No other EDR solutions.

I guess it was complex. To get the EDR operating useful I had to wait around 2 years.

Bafing from Peru is an integrator and consultant. They had done all of the work, and accompanied us many years.

Of course this is a yes. I had called the US partner during the past years when I need the support directly from the manufacturer and I got all the help to workaround or overcame issues. That had happended when my local partner company was not enough.

I pay for what we get. But the service level from my partner company is not enough to overcome a complex case.

We are a gobernment company, so we ask the system to contract a company that is resourceful with cybersecurity withount mentioning the name or mark. We had been using Trellix since it was Mc Afee. But I had evaluated solutions from Microsoft, Panda, ESNET, as general malware tools.

This year, I am planning to have a training for all the personnel of the company in every department so they can learn the basics of the endpoint tool. They can have more actions for possible threats or everything so they can help my department to make a better and faster action if something real is happening. Something like ethical hacking or a service, but using my own personnel in the company. I know that it is difficult, but I want to try to make that this year.

I have evaluated many products including Fortinet environment and a lot of appliances, and also many other products that we have now. I have evaluated around six or seven other brands or other products. However, I have learned Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) tools and before that McAfee, around two decades. It is enough expertise that we have made. I do not want to lose that with maybe another interesting tool. For example, what would be interesting is if an XDR  tool that can help us in managing the threats of the cybersecurity environment uses AI as an agent, a trained agent that helps our department, so it has to be trained first by a company like Trellix or another with the expertise or the capacity to help us actually. That is one thing I can recommend.

In February or March, I am signing a new contract with five levels, three more levels of security that we have now. We will have the tool, the SOC, the operating center service, and we need to manage applications firewall, web filtering, and XDR, and maybe next year also PAM and so on. I rated this solution an 8 out of 10.

I use César for our endpoints, our users, and the services from email and web services, back and forth, and also at the edge of our network. We have contracted firewalls and everything else for networking.

The product and the services we have are quite good. However, I cannot stay at this level forever. I have to improve continuously and dynamically.

Everything is working, and the company is training its personnel. I have had in a few months in the past some attacks on personnel—so phishing, for example. I have spent efforts on training our managers and others - what can software do if the knowledge base is low?

This year, I am going to improve some tools to be installed or maybe acquire some services to better manage our web services and work with my coworkers.

Application fiber also needs attention. Nowadays I am making applications that are publicly seen on the Internet. I need some protection, possibly multi-factor authentication improvements. I am seeing, for workflows, some sort of ethical hacking to test our environment.

Knowledge of everything, not only the product - maybe some kind of alerts - needs to emerge. I see the current ones as very low-tier, and they must improve.

I have used Trellix for some years.

I haven't had any issues. The pricing is very fine and according to the service. Trellix has done a good job reducing threats.

I have spent a lot of time with this product. I have contracted support and also have an operating control so I can get various types of support.

I have used Trellix for some years. In the past, the EDR was McAfee. I have worked with it for around 20 years.

The initial setup is a hard issue.

I have two contractors that help me support the infrastructure here. One is at the edge of networking, and the other is in the endpoints of our company.

I don't have any return on this investment. This is just a security policy for everything.

I haven't had any really great problems with pricing in the past two or three years.

Maybe another level of product and support from manufacturers would be better.

I have seen companies without any EDR services, and we were lacking information. I started with IDR around four years ago, and the support services were very light. I remember doing many tickets for Trellix support, and my EDR was not properly functioning. I didn't feel the detection or the real protection. My company is one among 17 others that are part of a corporation. I am a member of the IT Security Council.

Overall product rating is five out of ten.

I use the solution in my company for malware detection. My customers are mostly banking and government organizations.

The most valuable feature of the solution is its area for threat detection.

When it comes to some unknown fileless attacks, the tool is not able to detect them properly, making it an area where improvements are required.

The tool's support needs to improve in the areas of response it provides to users.

I have been using Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) for two and a half years.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

I rate the technical support a seven and a half out of ten.

The solution is SaaS-based, and we have deployed it using the hybrid cloud model.

The tool's deployment phase is a lengthy process. For one endpoint, it takes 15 to 20 minutes.

The tool is cost-effective. Many agents need to be installed, and on-premises integration is required.

I haven't worked on the tool to see how it works for security workflow.

My customers have not seen any challenges while working with Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) in terms of integrations.

The tool does not support any AI and security initiatives.

The tool is suitable for enterprise companies.

If businesses are completely on the cloud, then the tool is not required. If a company has a hybrid cloud model with an on-premises model, then it will be a good tool to use.

I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

I've used Trellix EDR to improve endpoints and servers' security and feed into MDR solutions.

The most useful features are behavior monitoring, DLP, and access control. The automation has gotten much better in the last two years than when it was McAfee. It works better now and integrates more smoothly.

I'd like the tool to become more like an XDR, with one management system and endpoint activation.

I have been using the solution for seven years.

Sometimes, stability issues come from incorrect partner deployments, not Trellix EDR itself.

I rate the tool a seven out of ten. To improve it, I'd like a cloud-based management system where I only need to put a correlator at the client's site, as CyberArk does. The best setup would be cloud management, a manager in a VM, and super agents on endpoints.

My opinion about technical support might be biased because I have direct access to top-level senior staff. I know some people struggle with support if they go through normal channels.

Setting up the solution is easy for me because I've been in cybersecurity for almost 30 years, but new users might find it hard. Depending on the client's needs, it can be set up on-premises, in a private or hybrid cloud, or fully in the cloud. Setting it up can take a few days for small environments or months for big companies with thousands of endpoints.

Pricing is a problem in South Africa. It could be cheaper here. The rand-to-dollar exchange rate makes it expensive for us. A 25 dollar endpoint cost becomes quite significant when converted to rand.

Our clients are usually medium-sized and enterprise businesses. Overall, I would recommend Trellix EDR to others. I'd rate it eight and a half out of ten. No EDR or XDR solution gets a nine from me right now because they all have room for improvement.

We use the solution to detect and identify critical management activities. Within the network level, you can understand what is happening in the environment. Organizations using complex systems for various purposes can easily identify shared activity within the environment. There is a detection base that allows us to identify and manage threat events. The solution also includes licenses for forensic investigations of any attack that occurs. Details can be found within the platform's release at the end of the month or whenever needed. Any Trellix malware activity will be displayed on the dashboard, and the moderating services will be integrated into everything we have built.

The dashboard makes it easier and more effective to analyze data. It also allows us to access the AWS analytics and system features in one place. If we need to find specific details about an endpoint, we can determine what is happening and how any organization is affected by the data provided.

The better approach is to apply the necessary improvements to make the dashboard more effective and user-friendly. If simplified, users can investigate issues in more detail by clicking on the relevant sections. Making it simpler would enhance understanding and improve the investigation process. Customers currently using the system can view everything on a single dashboard, which is very effective for understanding all scenarios and activities.

Customers rely on a single platform When they notice an incident, response, or attack. In SOC analysis teams, especially in banks or traditional organizations, the entire team needs access to the scenario on one platform. This allows them to understand the dashboard and detect any ongoing activity easily. Once they identify an issue, they can proceed with further analysis. Customers need a clear and visible platform that helps them understand when and how their site is being compromised.

The dashboard is split across different platforms. For example, if you want information on Incident Detection, you have to access one dashboard, and for DLP reporting, there's a separate platform. This fragmentation means you can't access everything from a single dashboard. Instead, you must navigate various options to find the right dashboard. This setup results in a separate view for each function. Ideally, we'd like to consolidate this into a unified platform, making it easier to identify site behaviors from one centralized dashboard.

I have been using Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) as a reseller.

We initially used McAfee's VSP and Varia System Enterprise products. After transitioning to Endpoint Security, particularly in version 10 or 7, we encountered performance issues on systems running Windows 7. The high resource utilization caused significant slowdowns, leading to numerous complaints, especially from Sakasho. The EDR was consuming too many system resources, which impacted overall performance. However, with the newer versions, like those in the InVision EPO, these issues seem to have been resolved, and the system now operates more efficiently. The current product is expected to be much lighter and more stable.

I rate the solution’s stability an eight out of ten.

I highly appreciate service architecture. They are developing day by day.

We are an enterprise that provides solutions through Trellix EDR that various external customers use. Our solutions are deployed in a large and diverse environment, including companies, telecoms, and major banks. These organizations rely on our products for their protection needs.

There are multiple ways to get support. You can create a case through your partner or support portal by calling. If necessary, you can raise a call and follow up immediately.

We operate within our environment and country. One of our clients, is interested in using our on-premises solution. They are hesitant to adopt a cloud-based solution due to concerns about data security. They worry that storing data in the cloud could expose it to unauthorized access. They are confused about how the cloud handles sensitive data like CPU data and prefer to keep their information on-premises. However, other banks have embraced cloud solutions and understand their value. Over time, as more companies study and become comfortable with cloud technology, we believe others will also follow and move to the cloud. We hope to maintain their interest in our services.

Its machine learning capability is strong, and the AI configurations and system integration enhance its effectiveness. The API solutions added to this system allow us to detect and respond to incidents quickly. The quick response is also due to Edge Solutions and specific-type solutions, enabling us to conduct thorough investigations and generate reports on the platform.

I recommend Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) because it offers strong capabilities. It’s worth noting that XDR solutions are also available and might be more effective. These XDR solutions are advanced technologies with enhanced features, including improved API integration.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
